Thibs could easily just say he's taking the year off

I could see this. And why not, dude's still getting paid. If his buddy, JVG, really wants the Pels job, he may step back to let his friend get back into the game. And after the Pels job, are the Nuggets or Magic jobs that appealing?

there you go
drama seems to have been SOP in chicago since thibs has been there, and its a 2-way street
Drama was SOP loooooooooooong before Thibs got there.

Headlines from the last few John Paxson hires:
quote:

Bulls' John Paxson Admits He Should Not Have Choked Vinny Del Negro

GM John Paxson has fired Head Coach Scott Skiles this Christmas Eve.
And Skiles was fired after they convinced him not to quit earlier in the season.

Now Thibs. And you could go all the way back to breaking up Jordan's championship run for no reason. Same ownership

@AntDavis23: SQUAD!!!!!

I guess that's why AD posted this on Twitter Wednesday. He may have heard what Thibs said and responded with this pic.

so he's going on a hunch that AD is gonna leave and be the first player in 15 years to turn down his first max extension and leave millions on the table?... dont buy it....

Sounds to me like we werent interested (along with the other openings) in Thibs and this is his agent spinning it in his favor. I have no problem with this b/c i thought from the beginning Thibs is a terrible fit here.

Thibs is just too much of a pussy to coach in the Western Conference. Nothing to see here.

If AD left after his contract ended, it would kill this franchise.

At least for the casual fans.

So why not say something PC like, "my good friend is currently in considerations for that job," or just quietly decline?

Is there a quote from Thibs? All I saw was some guy running his mouth.

It happened before. And it is how we landed AD.

Tom Thibodeau has no interest, I'm told, in coaching Pelicans (feels Davis will leave when pact permits if Thibs underachieves in playoffs in NOLA like he did in Chicago)

The Rockets dont automatically get the bronze over the Hawks just because of the results of those two series. Thats not how medals are awarded in tournaments.
